The role of the curator in museums and galleries is fairly well understood but the role of registrar is less easily defined. It is a job that encompasses the management of collections and exhibitions including information management, artwork handling and movement, preservation, conservation, insurance, transport logistics, acquisitions, loans, image management, copyright and legal and audit requirements.

Join Kate Hamersley, Registrar (UWA Collections), as she discusses the responsibilities of collection and exhibition registration at the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery.
